As New Zealand's top selling country music artist, My Country Song presenter Dennis Marsh will take on a mentoring role, offering advice to performers on the show.
“I am looking forward to working with up and coming homegrown artists. This is a great opportunity for exposure. Come and share the stage with us.”My Country Song, Blue Bach Productions producer Libby Hakaraia said country music is growing ever more popular in New Zealand because it's music with great stories.
“We had some fantastic talent in the first series and we expect to find gold in this second series!”
The first series aired on Maori Television in May 2013 showcasing more than 100 performers from throughout Aotearoa.
Following the success of the series, the 'Best of My Country Song' album reached number eight in the NZ Music Album Chart.
